HMM, a Palate Cleanser book - HMMM Maybe Winter Longing I loved that book, or Jessica's Guide To Dating on the Dark Side such a fun read - this is hard LOL...Oh Sucks to be me, is a fun laugh kinda read...

I am a blog follower - oldie. :)I also follow you on twitter @jenn_bookcrazy

Fav HEA books? I often just pick up any book by a particular author. Lisa Kleypas' historical romances are just the thing for an overburdened mind, as are Susan Elizabeth Phillips' contemporaries. For palate cleansing, I like a happy story that doesn't simultaneously insult my intelligence--good writing is a must!

My favorite light-hearted book? I'm going with either Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine or Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen. They both make me laugh through the writing & characters. : ) But I'm always so satisfied when the MCs end up together - as they should! ; )

+1 new follower of the blog and was referred by the Blog HopFor a cleanser I always revert back to the classics...I'm a huge Austen fan so Pride and Prejudice is always my go to...I read it at least once a year!

My cleansing book would probably have to be Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella. It just makes me laugh and smile:)+2 Old follower+1 twitter follower @bangersis+1 I tweeted http://twitter.com/bangersis/status/12356201293Thanks!email bangersis(at)msn(dot)com

Generally when I'm looking for light reading I pick up something horror or fantasy...something I don't really have to think about...a good example would be anything by Richard Laymon or perhaps a Marvel prose novel.

Old(ish) but still kind of new(ish) follower so that gets me an extra 1.5 entries?!? :)

Off the top of my head, I'd have to say Never Cry Werewolf by Heather Davis, it's cute and a really light read, with the sweetest ending possible, although it does leave the way open for a sequel, so there's a few loose ends ... :)

My favorite HEA book (currently b/c it's always changing) is Perfect Chemistry. I just have it on the brain, but it's fabulous. Also, anything by Jennifer Echols puts a smile on my face. I love those books that make you go "AWWWW." :)
